Edwin van der Sar signs new Manchester United contract

Edwin van der Sar has decided to stay at United for one more season. Without question he is still the best goalkeeper at Man United and probably one of the best goalkeepers over the last decade. United have certainly suffered during his absence this season.

van der Sar may have found a greater love for Manchester United for our understanding during the difficult time he has recently experienced with his wife’s illness. He realises that Manchester United are a family club which stems from Sir Alex Ferguson’s management.

The defence look far more assured with Edwin in goal over Ben Foster and Kuszczak. With Foster and Kuszczak I’m frightened to death either is selected in first team. Kuszczak needs to improve his catching from crosses and demand his penalty area better. Whilst Foster is always prone to at least one gaff during a game in my opinion.

If van der Sar and his wife are fit and well, why not play for another season.
